When you experience a concussion, the path back to feeling like yourself can feel
uncertain and overwhelming. Whether you recently sustained an injury on the pitch,
experienced a fall, suffered injury in a motor vehicle collision, or have been
struggling with lingering symptoms for months, you do not have to navigate recovery
alone, and full recovery is possible.
At The Concussion Clinic, Dublin, we take a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary
approach to brain health. No two concussions are identical, which is why we offer
tailored care plans designed specifically around your unique clinical profile. Here is
how we support you at every stage of your recovery journey:
1. Comprehensive Medical Assessment
Your recovery starts with a detailed medical evaluation. We take the time to
thoroughly assess your injury, map out your symptom profile, and establish an
optimised roadmap to get you back to your normal daily life safely and efficiently.
2. Acute Concussion Treatment (0–4 Weeks)
If your injury occurred within the last four weeks, early, proactive care makes all the
difference. We focus on active, guided recovery strategies that protect your healing
brain while gently keeping you moving forward.
3. Specialized Post-Concussion Syndrome Care (4+ Weeks)
For patients whose symptoms have persisted beyond four weeks, standard rest is
rarely the answer. We specialise in diagnosing and treating persistent post-
concussion syndrome, targeting the root causes of lingering headaches, fatigue, or
cognitive strain to help you finally turn the corner.
4. Expert Return-to-Play Guidance & Advice on Multiple Concussions
Whether you play GAA, rugby, or recreational sports, returning too early carries real
risks. We work closely with athletes to guide a structured, safe return-to-play
protocol. If you have a history of multiple concussions, we provide clear, evidence-
based answers regarding long-term safety and brain health.
5. Multi-Modal Baseline & Neurocognitive Testing
Understanding your exact baseline and tracking recovery with objective data can be
really helpful. We utilize neurocognitive testing alongside tech-enabled balance
assessments to precisely measure brain function, balance, and visual tracking
throughout your care.
6. Targeted Multi-Disciplinary Therapies
Concussion may impact multiple systems in the body. Therefore, our team delivers
integrated, hands-on care under one roof:
- Senior Physiotherapy & Whiplash Care: Hands-on treatment and active rehabilitation for cervical spine (neck) injuries that frequently accompany head impacts.
- Vestibular Rehabilitation: Specialized therapy targeting inner-ear dysfunction to resolve dizziness, vertigo, and balance instability.
- Functional, Cognitive & Occupational Therapy: Practical rehabilitation to help you manage fatigue, improve focus, and return smoothly to work or study demands.
- Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy: Supporting the emotional and psychological side of injury recovery, including anxiety, mood shifts, and stress.
